Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure provides a freshness-retaining sealed jar, and belongs to the technical field of sealed jars.BACKGROUND

[0002] When making pickles, in order to seal and store the pickles properly, a sealed jar is usually used. Green vegetables to be pickled are placed into a glass jar, and then an opening of the glass jar is covered with a traditional non-deformable lid such as a bamboo lid, a wooden lid, or an aluminum lid for sealing.

[0003] The above structure can basically meet normal usage requirements. However, due to the characteristics of a combustion process of the glass bottle, the opening of the glass bottle has a large size tolerance, so it is difficult to make the traditional lid in an appropriate size to match the opening, causing poor sealing performance in the bamboo lid or the wooden lid. Moreover, the bamboo lid or the wooden lid may get moldy. The aluminum lid also has poor sealing performance. In addition, gas generated during pickling can easily cause the lid to burst or deform, making it difficult to remove the lid. In order to ensure the sealing performance, an elder with traditional habits also uses a plastic bag to cover the opening of the glass jar, and then ties the plastic bag with a string for sealing, but it is often inconvenient to remove the lid. Based on this, the present disclosure provides a freshness-retaining sealed jar.SUMMARY

[0004] Technical problems solved in the present disclosure are as follows: A bamboo lid and a wooden lid have poor sealing performance and may get moldy. An aluminum lid also has poor sealing performance. Gas generated during pickling can easily cause the lid to burst or deform, making it difficult to remove the lid. It is inconvenient to remove the lid because a plastic bag is used to cover an opening and tied with a string.

[0005] In order to solve the technical problems, technical solutions of the present disclosure are as follows: A freshness-retaining sealed jar includes a glass jar. A silicone lid is arranged at a top of the glass jar. A bottom silicone cover is arranged at a bottom of the glass jar. A silicone rubber band is arranged at a periphery of the silicone lid and is configured to bind the silicone lid to a top opening of the glass jar. The silicone lid includes a concave top plate and a curtain-like enclosure that are integrally formed. The curtain-like enclosure is arranged at a bottom edge of the concave top plate and is wrapped around an outer side of the glass jar. A side top wall of the glass jar is arranged between an inner side wall of the concave top plate and an inner side wall of the curtain-like enclosure.

[0006] Further, limiting protrusions located on two sides of the silicone rubber band are arranged on an upper wall of an outer side of the curtain-like enclosure.

[0007] Further, the curtain-like enclosure is in a shape of a horn cover. The glass jar is in a shape with a large top opening and a small bottom.

[0008] Further, the bottom silicone cover includes a bottom plate and a ferrule that are integrally formed. The ferrule is arranged at a top edge of the bottom plate and abuts against an outer side wall of the glass jar.

[0009] Further, a through hole is provided in a center of a bottom of the bottom plate. A plurality of antislip protrusions located on an outer side of the through hole are arranged in a circumference of the bottom of the bottom plate.

[0010] Beneficial effects of the present disclosure are as follows:

[0011] The silicone rubber band binds the silicone lid to the opening of the glass jar. At this time, the opening of the glass jar is sealed and covered with the silicone lid, so that the scaling and freshness retaining performance is good. Gas generated in the glass jar during pickling can only prop up the concave top plate and make the concave top plate deform. When the freshness-retaining sealed jar needs to be opened, the silicone rubber band is pushed outwards under force and is removed from the curtain-like enclosure, and then the silicone lid can be removed conveniently. It is easy to open or close the jar, and a silicone material is environmentally friendly and gets moldy hardly.BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
